Topic: Star Trek: Voyager (Read 8297 times)

Hey I recently began watching Voyager again. Pretty decent show with a grand finale and good overreaching plot. Have you seen it? Do you have thoughts on it, favourite characters? My favourite character is probably Tom Paris for being a player at the beginning... Seven of nine is nice too, but for other reasons

Voyager is a decent series but it has to have some of the most preposterous individual plots and sci-fi mumbo jumbo of any of the Star Trek series (For the most extreme example, recall the episode where using an experimental faster-than-warp engine technology makes Tom Paris "evolve" into a newt.).

But otherwise its good solid fun and in between the preposterously stupid episodes there are some really good ones.

It's really saying something that one of the best episodes of Voyager was the one where everyone expect the doctor was dead for a thousand years.

Person21 - As enjoyed by Veraal.A wise Surface to Air Missile once said about marrying 9 year olds in Saudi Arabia "Its pretty hard to tell if a 9 year old is going to be hot when she grows up, kids change a lot, usually, seems like a bad system. That cute little nine year old you married could end being a fat, zitty teenager."

And the doctor had to prove to the people that only the Captain was insane.

That's the one.

Ah Threshold the staple of some really really bad trek. It's worth checking out SFDebris review of that episode on Youtube. In fact SFDebris has given me all new appriciation of Voyger. I can watch the show with out seeing Janeway as a tyrant, Kim as a sexual devient who is Janeways chew toy and can enjoy how Chekotay's life long dream to become what ever it is this weeks aliens give him the oppurtunity to be.
